Wood (back) had a setback after throwing a bullpen session on Wednesday and his return will be delayed, Mark Sheldon of MLB.com reports. "I think he had his most encouraging day when he was in San Diego [last Saturday]," manager David Bell said. "But when he threw in the next session in Arizona, the next day it didn't respond that well. It's a little bit of a step back. He may go next week for an exam, like a second opinion, on his back."

Wood gave up three runs in his spring training debut Monday and struggled with his command, Mark Sheldon of MLB.com reports. Wood walked the leadoff hitter, went into multiple full counts, threw a wild pitch before giving up a two-run homer to Domingo Santana. "I would have liked a better start for sure, but that's what Spring Training is for," Wood said. "You come to a new place and you want to make a good first impression, even if it is in spring. Obviously, three runs in the first are not what you want, but physically, I felt all right. So, I will get some work in the bullpen and getting ready for the next one."

Alex Wood Will Go Back To Windup Next Year

Dec. 10, 2018

More from

.Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Alex Wood will re-introduce his windup next year, according to general manager Andrew Friedman. Wood pitched solely out of the stretch in 2018 and saw his velocity and ERA (3.68) suffer as a result. The left-hander was still solid for fantasy owners, though, with nine wins, a 1.21 WHIP and 8.0 K/9 across 33 outings (27 starts). Don't expect Wood to be as good as he was in 2017 (16 wins, 2.72 ERA), but hopefully his return to a windup will make him more effective than he was last season.

Alex Wood Won't Start Sunday

Sep. 12, 2018

More from

.Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Alex Wood will not make the start Sunday against the Cardinals and could be pushed back to Monday against the Rockies, according to manager Dave Roberts. Ross Stripling would be an option to go on Sunday, but it depends on how his outing against the Reds goes on Wednesday. Wood was roughed up to the tune of eight hits and six earned runs in just 3 2/3 innings by the Reds on Monday, but he had been pretty solid before that, not allowing more than three earned runs in an outing in 13 straight starts. A matchup against the Rockies next week wouldn't be ideal, but the left-hander is talented enough to bounce back against a tough opponent.

Wood will no longer take the mound Sunday in St. Louis, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Alex Wood delivered a strong performance in Wednesday's 3-1 win over the Rangers. Wood pitched seven innings, allowing no runs on four hits and two walks with five strikeouts. The lefty has been a solid fantasy contributor once again this season and is now 8-6 with a 3.42 ERA, 122 strikeouts, and 35 walks in 139 1/3 IP. He will face a favorable matchup against the Mets in his next start Monday and should be in fantasy owners' lineups for all starts down the stretch.

Alex Wood Activated From DL, Starting Tuesday

The Los Angeles Dodgers activated starting pitcher Alex Wood (hip, groin) from the 10-day disabled list on Tuesday, and he's starting against the Giants. In a corresponding move, the Dodgers placed relief pitcher John Axford (leg) on the disabled list with a fractured right fibula. The left-hander missed just one turn in the rotation and should be good to put back into starting fantasy lineups against the rival Giants. Wood is 7-6 on the season with a 3.58 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 107 K's in 123 1/3 innings.

Alex Wood Pulled Early Friday As Precaution

Aug. 4, 2018

More from

Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said starting pitcher Alex Wood (hamstring) was pulled early from his start on Friday as a precaution after they noticed the lefty stretching out his hamstrings during his warmups. Wood still managed to go six innings while limiting the Astros to four hits and one earned run while walking three and striking out four. The southpaw has been solid for the Dodgers with a 3.58 ERA, although he's also sporting a rather mediocre 7.81 K/9. He should be fine for his next start.

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Alex Wood had a rough outing in Monday's 7-6 win over the Phillies. Wood allowed five runs on seven hits (including three home runs) and no walks with six strikeouts in just 4 2/3 innings. While the three HR is an ugly stat, Wood has done very well to avoid the long ball this season, allowing a mere 0.97 HR/9 rate. He will take his 3.87 ERA and 1.18 WHIP into Atlanta this weekend for a matchup with the Braves, who have the highest batting average against lefties this season.
